Detailed Description

The String data type class represents a string.

The logical value of the String data type is a string.

Member Function Documentation

◆ DisplayToLogical()

_.Library.String DisplayToLogical	(		_,
		_.Library.String	val
	)

static

Converts the input value val, which is a string, into the logical string format.

Returns the logical value of the input string val.

◆ IsValid()

_.Library.Status IsValid	(		_,
		_.Library.RawString	val
	)

static

Tests if the logical value val, which is a string, is valid.

The validation is based on the class parameter settings used for the class attribute this data type is associated with. In this case, MINLEN, MAXLEN, VALUELIST, and PATTERN.

Reimplemented from DataType.

Reimplemented in Text, and NetworkAddress.

◆ LogicalToDisplay()

_.Library.String LogicalToDisplay	(		_,
		_.Library.String	val
	)

static

Converts the value of val, which is in logical format, into a display string.

Removes all the null characters from the string.

Returns the string value of val.

Member Data Documentation

◆ COLLATION

COLLATION = None

static

The default collation value used for this data type.

Note that if you specify a truncation length and also a <parameter>VALUELIST</parameter> then your truncation length must be longer or equal to your longest VALUELIST value

◆ CONTENT

CONTENT = None

static

XML element content "MIXED" for mixed="true" and "STRING" or "ESCAPE" for mixed="false".

If CONTENT="STRING" (default) XML special characters are put in a CDATA section during XML export. If CONTENT="ESCAPE" XML special characters are escaped during XML export. If CONTENT="ESCAPE-C14N" XML special characters are escaped during XML export using the translate table, XMLC, specified for XML Canonicalizaton. The main difference is that CR is escaped as 

◆ DISPLAYLIST

DISPLAYLIST = None

static

Used for enumerated (multiple-choice) attributes.

Used in conjunction with the VALUELIST parameter for enumerated (multiple-choice) attributes. DISPLAYLIST, if not null, represents the display values for the attribute corresponding with the logical values listed in VALUELIST.

The display values are returned by the LogicalToDisplay method.

◆ JSONLISTPARAMETER

JSONLISTPARAMETER = None

static

Used to specify the name of the parameter which contains the enumeration list for JSON values.

The parameter which contains the list must be in the format used for VALUELIST and DISPLAYLIST. The default is VALUELIST.

◆ MAXLEN

MAXLEN = None

static

The maximum number of characters the string can contain.

The string may be any length.

◆ PATTERN

PATTERN = None

static

A pattern which the string should match.

The value of PATTERN should be a valid ObjectScript pattern match expression.

◆ VALUELIST

VALUELIST = None

static

Used for enumerated (multiple-choice) attributes.

VALUELIST is either a null string ("") or a delimiter separated list (where the delimiter is the first character) of logical values. If a non-null value is present, then the attribute is restricted to values in the list, and the validation code simply checks to see if the value is in the list.

◆ XMLLISTPARAMETER

XMLLISTPARAMETER = None

static

Used to specify the name of the parameter which contains the enumeration list for XML values.

The parameter which contains the list must be in the format used for VALUELIST and DISPLAYLIST. The default is VALUELIST.
